I have updated my article "The animistic archetypal nature of the unconscious" (
here). It concerns the problem of the ontology of the archetype. I propose an "unconscious theism" and posit an unconscious psychic God, in lieu of a transcendental spiritual God. The objective psyche is an autonomous reality on a par with physical reality. The archetype, as such, needn't be defined in physical terms, since the psychic substratum in which it resides is permanent. The archetype is not a metaphysical imprint, nor is it defined by brain structure, or epigenetics, etc. The archetype evolves in an unconscious process of 'complementation'. If we venture into deep unconsciousness, at some instance we must pass the border of the godhead. If correct, this is the 'unio mystica' of the Christian complentatives. At this level of psyche the archetypes are undergoing a slow process of formulation. They are not metaphysical imprints, but products of slow but powerful ideation.
